Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo.

G D C

G D

1. I'm packed and I'm holding, I'm smiling, she living,

C

she golden, she lives for me, says, she lives for me.

G D

Ovation, her own motivation,

C G

she comes around and she goes down on me.

D C

And I make her smile like a drug for you.

Do ever what you want to do ?

G D

Coming over you, keep on smiling what we go through,

C

one stop to the rhythm that divides you.

G D C

And I speak to you like the chorus to the verse,

G

chop another line like a coda with a curse.

D C

Come on like a freak show takes the stage,

G

we give them the games we play, she said …

G D C

I want something else to get me through this

G D C

semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby.

G D C

I want something else,

G - D C

I'm not listening when you say goodbye.

G D C

+ Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo.

G D C

Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo.

2. The sky it was gold, it was rose,

D C

I was taking sips of it through my nose,

and I wish I could get back there.

G D

Some place back there, smiling in the pictures you would take,

C

doing crystal meth will lift you up until you break.

G D

It won't stop, I won't come down,

C

I keep stock with a tick-tock rhythm, a bump for the drop.

G D

And then I bumped up, I took the hit that I was given,

C

then I bumped again, then I bumped again, said :

D C

How do I get back there to

D C

the place where I fell asleep inside you ?

D C D C

How do I get myself back to the place where you said…

G D C

I want something else to get me through this

G D C

semi-charmed kind of life, baby, baby.

G D C

I want something else,

G - D C

I'm not listening when you say goodbye.

G D C

3. I believe in the sand beneath my toes,

G

the beach gives a feeling, an earthy feeling.

D C

I believe in the faith that grows,

G - D

and the four right chords can make me cry.

C G

When I'm with you I feel like I could die,

D - C

and that would be alright, alright.

D C

And when the plane came in she said she was crashing,

D C D C

the velvet it rips in the city we tripped on the urge to feel alive.

G

But now I'm struggling to survive

D C

those days you were wearing that velvet dress.

D C

You're the priestess, I must confess,

D C

those little red panties they pass the test.

G - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -

slide up around the belly, face down on the mattress.

D - C D - C D - C

One, and you hold me, and we're broken.

G

Still it's all that I wanna do, just a little now !

G D C

4. Feel myself head made of the ground

G - D C

I'm scared I'm not coming down, no no,

G - D

and I won't run for my life.

C G

She's got her jaws now locked down in a smile,

D

but nothing is alright, alright.

G D C G D C

+ I want something else to get me through this life, baby !

I was taking sips of it through my nose.

G D C

And I wish I could get back there in the place you used to start.

G D C

+ Doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo, doo doo doo, doo doo doo doo.

G D C

I want something else !
